Early life


Adam Tsekhman was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, but raised in Toronto, Ontario.[3][4] His parents were Ukrainian immigrants of Jewish descent[4] who came to Canada in the early 1970s. While studying finance at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, he developed a passion for acting, and joined a theatre troupe one of his friends was working at. After graduating from Wharton, Tsekhman wanted to pursue a career in investment banking and attended an interview with Lehman Brothers, but changed his mind and went to Columbia University where he graduated with a Masters in Fine Arts in Theatre Acting.[5]


Career


After graduating from Columbia University, Tsekhman landed a role in the Russian TV series Zona.[5] He received a best lead actor in a series nomination at the Monte-Carlo Television Festival, but lost to Kiefer Sutherland for 24. Tsekhman then moved to Los Angeles to work on other films and TV series.[3] In 2014, he featured in the Yiddish-language film Tsili as a Jewish refugee named Marek.[6] In 2017, Tsekhman was cast in the third season of The CW's Legends of Tomorrow as Gary Green. Initially intended to appear only for three episodes, he later became a recurring character,[7] and was promoted to the main cast during its sixth season.[8] In 2019, Tsekhman joined the thriller film Dreamland (later retitled Crisis) as an Armenian gangster named Armen.[9][10]
